==========
This project is an adaptation of ["Sudoku.js"][https://github.com/robatron/sudoku.js/], but with a few improvements:
- Release as npm package, to be installed in other projects
- Use nodejs native Test Runner
- Use classes, linter, modern notation
All credits should really go to ["Sudoku.js"][https://github.com/robatron/sudoku.js/]
SudokuJS
==========
A Sudoku puzzle **generator** and **solver** JavaScript library.
Check out the [online demo][demo] to see it in action.
Implementation ideas borrowed from
["Solving Every Sudoku Puzzle"][norvig-sudoku] by
[Peter Norvig][norvig], and a [generator/solver][anderson-sudoku] by
[Michael Anderson][anderson].
[demo]:http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/robatron/sudoku.js/blob/master/demo/index.html
Intro
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Puzzles are represented by a string of digits, 1-9, and '.' as spaces. Each
character represents a square, e.g.,
"52...6.........7.13...........4..8..6......5...........418.........3..2...87....."
Represents the following board:
5 2 . | . . 6 | . . .
. . . | . . . | 7 . 1
3 . . | . . . | . . .
------+-------+------
. . . | 4 . . | 8 . .
6 . . | . . . | . 5 .
. . . | . . . | . . .
------+-------+------
. 4 1 | 8 . . | . . .
. . . | . 3 . | . 2 .
. . 8 | 7 . . | . . .
(See the included [converstion functions](#board-string-%E2%86%94-grid) to
convert between string representations and grids, i.e., two-dimensional arrays.)
Generate a Sudoku puzzle
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Generage a Sudoku puzzle of a particular difficulty, e.g,
```javascript
>>> sudoku.generate("easy")
"672819345193..4862485..3197824137659761945283359...714.38..1426.174.6.38.463...71"
>>> sudoku.generate("medium")
"8.4.71.9.976.3....5.196....3.7495...692183...4.5726..92483591..169847...753612984"
>>> sudoku.generate("hard")
".17..69..356194.2..89..71.6.65...273872563419.43...685521......798..53..634...59."
```
Valid difficulties are as follows, and represent the number of given squares:
"easy": 62
"medium": 53
"hard": 44
"very-hard": 35
"insane": 26
"inhuman": 17
You may also enter a custom number of squares to give, e.g.,
```javascript
>>> sudoku.generate(60)
"8941376521532687497269548...72.9158.538.4219..19.852..3874.69.52415793689658.34.."
```
The number of givens must be a number between 17 and 81 inclusive. If it's
outside of that range, the number of givens will be set to the closest bound,
e.g., 0 will be treated as 17, and 100 as 81.
By default, the puzzles should have unique solutions, unless you set `unique` to
false, e.g.,
```javascript
sudoku.generate("easy", false)
```
Note: **Puzzle uniqueness is not yet implemented**, so puzzles are *not*
guaranteed to have unique solutions.
Solve a Sudoku puzzle
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Solve a Sudoku puzzle given a Sudoku puzzle represented as a string, e.g.,
```javascript
>>> sudoku.solve(".17..69..356194.2..89..71.6.65...273872563419.43...685521......798..53..634...59.");
"217386954356194728489257136165948273872563419943712685521439867798625341634871592"
```
Board string ↔ grid
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Board string → grid:
```javascript
>>> sudoku.board_string_to_grid("23.94.67.8..3259149..76.32.1.....7925.321.4864..68.5317..1....96598721433...9...7")
[
["2","3",".","9","4",".","6","7","."],
["8",".",".","3","2","5","9","1","4"],
["9",".",".","7","6",".","3","2","."],
["1",".",".",".",".",".","7","9","2"],
["5",".","3","2","1",".","4","8","6"],
["4",".",".","6","8",".","5","3","1"],
["7",".",".","1",".",".",".",".","9"],
["6","5","9","8","7","2","1","4","3"],
["3",".",".",".","9",".",".",".","7"]
]
```
Board grid → string:
```javascript
>>> sudoku.board_grid_to_string([
["2","3",".","9","4",".","6","7","."],
["8",".",".","3","2","5","9","1","4"],
["9",".",".","7","6",".","3","2","."],
["1",".",".",".",".",".","7","9","2"],
["5",".","3","2","1",".","4","8","6"],
["4",".",".","6","8",".","5","3","1"],
["7",".",".","1",".",".",".",".","9"],
["6","5","9","8","7","2","1","4","3"],
["3",".",".",".","9",".",".",".","7"]
])
"23.94.67.8..3259149..76.32.1.....7925.321.4864..68.5317..1....96598721433...9...7"
```
Get candidates
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get a grid of squares and their candidate values, propagating constraints, i.e.,
candidates restrict their peer candidates.
```javascript
>>> sudoku.get_candidates("4.25..389....4.265..523.147..1652.7.6..1945322543876915....3.1....4..9.....8....3")
[
["4", "167", "2", "5", "167", "16", "3", "8", "9" ],
["13789", "13789", "3789", "79", "4", "189", "2", "6", "5" ],
["89", "689", "5", "2", "3", "689", "1", "4", "7" ],
["389", "389", "1", "6", "5", "2", "48", "7", "48" ],
["6", "78", "78", "1", "9", "4", "5", "3", "2" ],
["2", "5", "4", "3", "8", "7", "6", "9", "1" ],
["5", "246789", "6789", "79", "267", "3", "478", "1", "468"],
["1378", "123678", "3678", "4", "1267", "156", "9", "25", "68" ],
["179", "124679", "679", "8", "1267", "1569", "47", "25", "3" ]
]
```
Print a board to the console
----------------------------
```javascript
>>> sudoku.print_board(".17..69..356194.2..89..71.6.65...273872563419.43...685521......798..53..634...59.");
. 1 7 . . 6 9 . .
3 5 6 1 9 4 . 2 .
. 8 9 . . 7 1 . 6
. 6 5 . . . 2 7 3
8 7 2 5 6 3 4 1 9
. 4 3 . . . 6 8 5
5 2 1 . . . . . .
7 9 8 . . 5 3 . .
6 3 4 . . . 5 9 .
